Product information

What is the Vgate vLinker FS Bluetooth FORScan OBD2 Adapter for?

vLinker FS Bluetooth is an screenless vehicle communication adapter designed for users who want wireless HS-CAN/MS-CAN access in FORScan. Compared to vLinker MC+, the following conclusion is reached: FS Bluetooth offers FEPS and a longer data frame for FORScan; MC+ is geared towards more general application use with SW-CAN support.

This distinction affects not only the convenience of connection for vLinker FS Bluetooth but also the applications that can be used and the vehicle networks that can be accessed. The following limitation is maintained in the selection of vLinker FS Bluetooth: Third-party application support on iOS may differ from Android and Windows; the application's current adapter list should be checked.

vLinker FS Bluetooth does not diagnose faults on its own; the codes and data carried by the adapter are interpreted with service procedures, physical inspection, and, if necessary, measurements.

What would you buy this for?

  • Users wanting wireless HS-CAN/MS-CAN access in FORScan
  • Users of one of the iOS, Android, and Windows devices
  • Those who confirm the need for HS-CAN and MS-CAN, 18V FEPS output, 4K request length, and 3 Mbps connection from the application documentation for vLinker FS Bluetooth
  • Users who accept the screenless adapter and separate application setup with vLinker FS Bluetooth

Featured diagnostic features

  • Bluetooth and Apple MFi connection
  • Operating system: iOS, Android, and Windows
  • Protocol coverage: HS-CAN and MS-CAN, 18V FEPS output, 4K request length, and 3 Mbps connection
  • The manufacturer specifies 12V and 24V automotive systems for FS Bluetooth; heavy-duty vehicle software coverage is a separate issue from adapter voltage support.
  • Application license and vehicle support are checked separately from the adapter

Product details

What is vLinker FS Bluetooth for?

vLinker FS Bluetooth establishes a data connection between the vehicle's OBD socket and compatible software running on iOS, Android, and Windows. When vLinker FS Bluetooth connects to a general OBD2 application, engine and emission codes, readiness monitors, and supported live data can be read.

The appearance of brand-specific modules or coding options via vLinker FS Bluetooth depends on the application supporting this vehicle and control unit. vLinker FS Bluetooth does not have a screen, its own diagnostic software, or a vehicle database; these tasks are handled by the application used.

  • Communication between OBD socket and application
  • Reading codes and live data in supported applications
  • Application and vehicle condition for brand-specific access
  • Phone, computer, and application are not included in the package

Product details

Connection and operating system difference

The connection specified by the manufacturer for vLinker FS Bluetooth is Bluetooth and Apple MFi connection; the supported platform description is iOS, Android, and Windows. During the initial setup of vLinker FS Bluetooth, enable Bluetooth on the phone or computer, select the vLinker FS connection type supported by the application used, and read the vehicle profile.

Even if vLinker FS Bluetooth appears in the phone's connection menu, data exchange with the vehicle has not started. vLinker FS Bluetooth is selected with the correct adapter type within the application; code deletion or setting changes are not made without reading the ignition status and the initial vehicle profile.

Connection
Bluetooth and Apple MFi connection
Platform
iOS, Android, and Windows
Application
Installed and licensed separately

Product details

Protocol coverage and technical limitations

Vgate specifies support for HS-CAN and MS-CAN, 18V FEPS output, 4K request length, and 3 Mbps connection for the vLinker FS Bluetooth hardware. Although vLinker FS Bluetooth communicates with supported vehicle networks, the application used may not recognize every module in the vehicle.

Third-party application support on iOS may differ from Android and Windows; the application's current adapter list should be checked.

Reading fault codes with vLinker FS Bluetooth is not at the same risk level as configuration or programming; writing operations require the vehicle battery, module selection, application license, and rollback record separately.

On the voltage side, the manufacturer specifies 12V and 24V automotive systems for FS Bluetooth; heavy-duty vehicle software coverage is a separate issue from adapter voltage support.

  • Verified coverage: HS-CAN and MS-CAN, 18V FEPS output, 4K request length, and 3 Mbps connection
  • Application and vehicle profile can narrow the technical scope
  • Code reading and programming operations are not to be confused
  • Firmware is only available from Vgate's official download channel

Product details

Main difference with vLinker MC+

Although vLinker FS Bluetooth and vLinker MC+ are in the same vLinker family, they are not the same variant. The main distinction between these two models is: FS Bluetooth offers FEPS and a longer data frame for FORScan; MC+ is geared towards more general application use with SW-CAN support.

When selecting vLinker FS Bluetooth, the body shape or the name "vLinker" alone is not sufficient. The device to be used for vLinker FS Bluetooth, the application's official adapter list, the vehicle network, and the intended operation are checked in sequence.

The vLinker FS Bluetooth connection setting may not be valid for another variant; the firmware file should also not be transferred between models.

  • This model: Bluetooth and Apple MFi connection
  • Platform: iOS, Android, and Windows
  • Closest model: vLinker MC+
  • Model name and firmware file must match exactly

Product details

Scenario 1: Initial connection and secure acceptance test

Upon receiving the vLinker FS Bluetooth, first compare the model name on the device with the box label. The vLinker FS Bluetooth is plugged into the OBD socket of the safely parked vehicle, and the ignition is turned to the position specified by the manufacturer.

At this stage, enable Bluetooth on the phone or computer, select the vLinker FS connection type supported by the application used, and read the vehicle profile. After vLinker FS Bluetooth reads the vehicle identification, the existing codes are saved without deletion, and a few basic live values are monitored briefly.

If the vLinker FS Bluetooth connection is unstable, do not proceed to the write or coding menu. The vLinker FS Bluetooth acceptance test separately shows hardware, phone connection, and vehicle profile communication.

  • Check the model label
  • Save the initial scan without deleting codes
  • Test connection stability with live data
  • Do not rush the writing process

Product details

Scenario 2: Wirelessly scanning HS-CAN and MS-CAN modules and saving the error log

vLinker FS Bluetooth can be used to wirelessly scan HS-CAN and MS-CAN modules and save the error log on a supported Ford vehicle using FORScan Lite with an iPhone or Android phone. Before starting a vLinker FS Bluetooth session, check the phone or computer's power status, the vehicle's battery voltage, and the application license.

In the first scan with vLinker FS Bluetooth, the module list and the status of fault codes are recorded. Then, select only a few live values related to the complaint on the screen of the application used with vLinker FS Bluetooth; a large number of parameters can reduce the data refresh rate.

The data obtained through vLinker FS Bluetooth does not indicate the cause of the fault alone; the wiring diagram, service procedure, and physical measurement determine the next step.

  • Prepare battery and device connection
  • Save the initial module list
  • Limit related live data
  • Verify data with physical inspection

Product details

Box contents and items to be purchased separately

The product description on Vgate's official vLinker FS Bluetooth page shows the scope of one vLinker FS Bluetooth adapter and user manual. The vLinker FS Bluetooth package does not include a phone, tablet, Windows computer, paid application, or brand subscription.

When the vLinker FS Bluetooth stock is reopened, the device label, connection variant, and physical package are checked before shipment; another vLinker model with a similar body is not used in place of this product.

  • one vLinker FS Bluetooth adapter and user manual
  • Phone or computer not included
  • Application and license not included
  • Model label must match the connection variant
